Rugby players and their supporters braved the heat and got stuck in at the annual Jimmy Cracker’s Sevens tournament in Mumbles.

Named after the late Mumbles RFC stalwart Jimmy ‘Cracker’ Michaels, Sunday’s event featured 10 men’s and women’s teams.

Mumbles RFC chairman Simon Evans said the event, now in its 28th year, had been a great success.

“I’d like to say a massive thank you to the community for their support, and to all our local sponsors,” he said.

The men’s tournament was won by Welsh Charitables, while Ponty Butchers triumphed in the ladies’ section.

Junior teams were in action the day before, while on the Friday night Mumbles RFC hosted teams from Swansea Uplands RFC to help raise money in memory of the late Tom Pugh, who played for the Upper Killay club before his death at the age of 25 last November.

The weekend of action took place in the sunshine at Underhill Park, with family entertainment, a gig from Mumbles band The Contenders and a barbecue all day on Sunday keeping energy levels up.
